This causes the Mac to switch ouput from the internal speaker. The effect might be produced by some bit of cable or other piece of metal inside the speaker socket. Check that your speaker plug really fits all the way inside. Check that the wires connecting your speaker have not become de-soldered, short-circuited or torn If all that is okay, check the capacitors on your mother board. Cap failures led to sound dying on my classic II. You can normally tell that a cap has failed because the mother board around the failed cap is soiled with a sticky substance. Clean this and replace the cap. I know this sounds easier than it is, but it worked for me. -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
